He was reportedly meant to function backup for Luis Díaz.
However anybody wanting on the Bundesliga squads after the primary three matchdays will discover that Ibrahimović is nowhere to be discovered at Bayern. As a substitute, he exhibits up at FC Augsburg. A lot for "making a push."

For now, the dream of instantly establishing himself on the "greatest membership on the earth" has was a detour through Augsburg. But when on a regular basis life there continues to encompass begins and objectives, Arijon Ibrahimović is unlikely to thoughts. Even with out high quality phrases from the membership’s management. And on Säbener Straße, they might then need to ask themselves whether or not abandoning that promise of "making a push" was maybe somewhat untimely in any case.
